More Insights
Built in 2003 (23 years old).
Condition: This property is in 'MOVE-IN ready condition' as stated, and the images confirm a very well-maintained home. Built in 2003, it falls just outside the 10-20 year range for 'Good' based on age alone, but its overall condition, cleanliness, and functional systems align well with the 'Good' criteria. The kitchen features granite countertops and appears clean and functional, though the honey oak cabinets and black appliances reflect an early 2000s style rather than a modern aesthetic. Similarly, the bathrooms are clean and functional with dual vanities, a separate shower, and soaking tub, but the cabinet style and lighting are also consistent with the original build era. While cosmetic updates to the kitchen and bathrooms would enhance its appeal to buyers seeking contemporary styles, no immediate renovations or repairs are required. The property also boasts desirable features like plantation shutters, a private Pebble-Tec pool and spa, and a well-organized garage with A/C, all contributing to its 'Good' condition.

Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1917, other record living area = 1717.
High Association Fees: The property carries a significant monthly association fee of $600.0, which adds a substantial recurring cost to homeownership.
Age-Restricted Community: Being part of a 'premier adult community' (typically 55+) restricts the potential buyer pool, which could impact market demand and resale value for a broader demographic.
Compact Lot Size: With a lot size of 5,227 sqft, the property offers limited outdoor space beyond the pool and patio areas, which may not appeal to buyers seeking larger yards or extensive landscaping opportunities.
